Craft Sewing Lamp
Can't I use a regular floor lamp with full spectrum light bulbs as photography lighting?
Even the amateur lights for sale are too high for me. What is the difference in those and the full spectrum sewing lights you can buy at craft stores or just lamps with full spectrum bulbs?
I understand your confusion. Yes, I meant too expensive. Also, I did want to use the light for photographing portraits, full body and head shots.
What do you mean by too "high"? Too tall? Too bright? Too expensive? I don't understand....
Anyway.... full spectrum bulbs are wonderful. I adore mine in my office lamp which I point at the ceiling in my small office - it feels like I have a sky light in the middle of the night. They are soooooooooo much nicer than the usual yellow type.
Daylight bulbs (i.e. full spectrum) are also wonderful for photography, they are always superior to the normal ones, no matter what setup you have.
If you can't have full on proper lighting, just make do with whatever you have for now..... learn to work with your limitations and know that it can only get better.
